    Posted: 09 February 2009 at 10:55am
How'dy y'all,
 
I need to set a xtpControlCheckBox, the one on a ribbon group, to "grayed".
Such status should be set either via code either clicking on the control.
 
 
'[CUT] ...
Dim GroupFilter As RibbonGroup
Dim checkControl As CommandBarControl
 
Set checkControl = GroupFilter.Add(xtpControlCheckBox, 5000, "check1")
checkControl.DescriptionText = "Some description"
checkControl.Checked = False
'[CUT] ...
 
Actually, I add the control in the Ribbon by the above code but the CommandBarControl type don't support the "value" property to set the status on xtpGrayed, it's support only the checked property that accept only e true|false values .....
 
At the time being I don'know how to do it, can you help me please?
 
Many Thanks

Hi Oleg, I don't understand what do you mean ... the .enabled = False don't work like .value = xtpGrayed ....

Hi,
 
I'm not that great with Markup... But Jason or Oleg could help you with this...
 
I'm not sure if this is possible:
 
  1. Add label to form (or maybe MarkupLabel)
  2. Build markup string to have 3-state Checkbox
  3. AddHandler (in case of MarkupLabel) or include clickevent in Markup string???
  4. Attach Label or MarkupLabel to Commandbars
  5. Ready
I have come this far:
 
  1. Added Label (set EnableMarkup = True) to PictureBox and PictureBox to form (this wasn't that difficult )
  2. Label1.Caption = "<StackPanel><CheckBox Margin='1' IsThreeState='True' IsChecked='' Padding='0'>3-State Check Box</CheckBox></StackPanel>"
  3. Jason or Oleg
  4. Dim custControl As CommandBarControlCustom
    Set custControl = <Your Toolbar>.Controls.Add(xtpControlCustom, 1, "Checkbox 3-State")
          custControl.Handle = Picture1.hWnd
  5. Ready to go...

I've put together a little demo that uses the Markup control (instead of the Label control). I prefer it because you get access to all of the Markup objects, and they make life a lot easier that messing around with XAML strings. It can handle the standard VB checkbox values, and can use XAML/Markup captions.
I've called the event to test for changing values ValueChanged instead of Click (since it makes more sense this to me), but you could easily change it and add any additional properties/events that you require. The code should demonstrate how to link XAML events to a Usercontrol/Form.

Hi Jason,
 
Thanks for creating a complete and reusable code
 
Oleg: Could you complete code with adding this to a Ribbon? Then you would have another satisfied customer (I'm sure he/she already was) 
 
Thanks a lot.

Thanks Aaron ;)

I don't need thanks though (although thanks are always nice) - I'm happy to try these challenges out as a learning experience to see what can improve my own software.

Oleg, I have installed the special version of Codejock.CommandBars.v13.0.0.ocx from support, but I still cannot find the property to set xtpCommandCheckbox = xtpGrayed.

Can you help me, please.

Thanks.

Hi Oleg, ok it works ... but one more question: how can verify if xtpControlCheckBox is set to xtpGrayed ? If I test out the checked property on status xtpGrayed, it return always false .....



[Example]
.....
Dim CheckControl As CommandBarCheckBox ' <- xtpControlCheckBox
.....
CheckControl.Checked = 2 ' <- set status to xtpGrayed
If CheckControl.Checked = 2 Then ' <- ALWAYS FALSE
......
[End]

Thanks.

Hi,
 
right, you can't :( I changed it.
 
Think now you can create variable and syncronize value with this variable in Update handler.
